Quote from The Sun:


Goods shipped to Britain from the EU are to be waved through 20 UK ports without checks in a No Deal to avoid huge jams – HMRC has declared.

In official advice released today, HM Revenue & Customs said that “for a temporary period” it would allow “most” shipments into the country before companies have even informed them they’ve arrived.

Exporters would have just over 24 hours to then fill in an electronic declaration.

That's going to cause huge complaints from non-EU countries to the WTO if we treat the EU differently from other countries. Considering we haven't got our tariff schedule past the WTO yet which requires unanimous agreement, might be best not to aggravate other WTO members right now.
